OK I NEED TO SAY THIS
2 things that piss me off
1) the myanmar thing :
OMG YOU FREAKING RETARDS can't you see the people are suffering? why cant you just let them get the aid thats given to them even if youre not going to help? At the very least you shouldnt be STOPPING aid from getting to them!
OMG I'm so angry and frustrated and upset and I realise how helpless and cruel and HORRIBLE people and humans and situations can get PEOPLE IN THAT COUNTRY ARE GEETING CHASED OUT OF THEIR MAKESHIFT SHELTERS CAUSE THEYRE DEEMED UNSIGHTLY I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS
2) the whole issue in JYM regarding tattoos and piercings and dyed hair.
I dont think dyed hair is going too far, and piercings, as long as theyre not in certain places and not too plentiful, are ok. And tattoos, I do agree that while they push the line between whats acceptable and not, I also think we should learn to accept them. Its kinda like, if a black guy walks in, we're not going to discriminate against him just cause he's the only one right? I hope not at least. I dont really encourage getting tattoos, cause we may regret it later on, and its kinda with you for life. Even with the new removal technology nowadays, its not possible to totally get rid of them. My suggestion to those who wanna get one is
1) get a tattoo that really has alot of meaning for you, thats been niggling at you for a few years, and please dont to get smth like your boyfriends name, cause I think you wouldnt want it anymore if you 2 happen to break up
2) dont get a suggestive or disgusting tattoo. E.g dont get "fuck me" tattoed across you stomach and stuff like that, and try not to get disgusting faces unless they hold an unswaying appeal for you. I have a friend desperately trying to remove a tatt of a demon face on his back now, and he really regrets it
3) as teenagers, you have to admit we do some pretty stupid things now that we're gonna look back on and laugh at in the future. We do these things due to unknown reasons, simply cause we're still young, and thats the way it is. We think we know everything there is to know now, and believe me, I used to think that way too. Ever remember a low point or high point or some significant point in your life where you thought " THIS is it, it cant be any more sad/good/etc etc etc" only to be proven wrong later?" yeah same here. So really, if you wanna get a tatt at least make it to legal age before getting it done
4) listen to your friends. Not on what to get done, but on what NOT to get done. Its your body, but after all, who wants their friends to think your body's disgusting
And to my dear inked-up friends, I do commend you on being able to bear the pain. I dont know how I'm going to tahan mine when I get it done, but yeah. You must remember that society has not totally come to embrace tatts, so you must be prepared for a certain amount of criticism and discrimination, along with any admiring glaces thrown your way. I mean, deal with it, youre not a little kid anymore,
You got a tatt of your own free will, you can LIVE with the consequences.
Have enough guts to get one, have enough guts to live with it ( and love it ). =D
